Reality TV

re.al.i.ty tel.e.vi.sion (ree-AL-itee TEL-eh-vishun)
a genre of television in which real life people are followed by a camera crew

Uhhhhh?

I don't know about you but that definition sounds kinda creepy to me.^^^ This is what I'm here to say, all of you out there who watch reality tv...are Creepers, a kind of people that creeps. Peeping Toms. Watchers, Stalkers and here is why.

So when you're watching reality tv your tv is like a window into those people's lives. You see what they eat, what they do, what they talk about, what problems they have. You see the birth of their children, there marital disputes. Everything pretty much. And this TV show watching is perfectly acceptable to most. But in my opinion it is straight up creepy.

When you watch reality TV you might as well go to your neighbors house, plop down a lawn chair in front of a window looking into their house, and watch. You'd see all the things you do in a TV show. Then, people think it's creepy, but it's really the same. Watching the every move of strangers lives. And my friends, that is very creepy.

Consider these questions:

Would you ever watch a stranger give birth at your own will?

Would you pop a squat and watch intently while two married strangers argued?

Would you go out of your way to watch a strangers child turn 7?

Would have someone tape record a stranger beat her sister with a high heeled shoe so you didn't miss it?

Would you keep track of a group of strangers weight loss?

Would you watch a stranger make out with a bunch of a girls in a hot tub and vote for which one he could marry?


Now please realize, I am not saying you need to stop watching reality shows but you're just as creepy as the people who watch through windows. Just sayin'.

Love,
Autumn

How To Waste Seminar

Trust me, i am a proffesional in this field.

Step One-
Go to a seminar with your friends. The ones you can talk about everything, anything and nothing with. You know them.

Step Two-
Look for your travel pass for about ten minutes or so.

Step Three-
Realize you don't have it, beg your teacher to let you stay for about five minutes.

Step Four-
Search for your pencil in your oversized purse.

Step Five-
Pause the pencil searching. It's awkward turtle time.

Step Six-
Resume the pencl searching...OOO a piece of gum.

Step Seven-
Discuss with your friends the science of gum.

"Autumn, what have you accomplished this seminar?"
'Well, uhm, well I, uhhh...Want a piece of gum"?

Step Eight-
Find your pencil, finally!

"Autumn, open your book"
"It's open"
"Start working then"
"I just found my pencil"
"It took you 40 minutes to find your pencil?!"
" It's a little pencil, and my bag is really big...I bet you couldn't find a pencil in here"
*Throw Pencil Back In*
"Just work, Autumn"
"Oh well, gotta find my pencil again"
*Get THE look*

Step Nine-
Write the homework assignment on top of the page.

Step Ten-
The kid next to you doesn't know what water polo is. It's diagram time on the whiteboard.

"Autumn...SIT DOWN!"
"But he didn't know what water polo was...i couldn't just leave him in the dark like that"

Step Eleven-
Sit down. Stare at the page for a bit.

"Kelsey, remember when i got behind the Zetterburg sign and was talking"
ALL LAUGH
"Hey, Autumn, BE QUIET"
"Sorry"
"I'm coming over to see what you accomplish today"
"Good. I accomplished alot"

Step Twelve-
Scramble. Find that spanish worksheet you did yesterday.

Step Thirteen-
Show the teacher what you "did".

"Oh...well...next time can you try working and being quiet?"
"I'll consider it"

CONGRATS YOU WASTED AN HOUR& A HALF!

Love,
Autumn
